Just as some background I live in Central VA as freepers know VA is one of the states that will determine who will win the POTUS election in November. I was at Costco during the weekend and I noticed a car parked with a bumper sticker and I beheld it was a ROMNEY sticker. This is the first one I have seen during this year long whole campaign sticker. I have seen plenty of Obama stickers, there is a significant African-American population in the metro area, and many Anti-Obama stickers but so far this sole instance of a Romney sticker. I got a bit annoyed when the Romney sycophants criticized Speaker Boehner for speaking the truth that except for Mormons nobody is going to cast a positive vote in favor for Romney but voting to fire Obama. All the anecdotal evidence supports Boehner's statement.

I’m in central VA, too. I haven’t seen a single Romney bumpersticker, but I have seen some for Obama....sported by blacks, ugly white women, and in one case, a fat white college student type with a carrot-top afro and a beater car.

I live in Central VA as well. Likely a little east of you toward's Charlottesville. I've seen no Romney stickers at all, and lots of Anti-O stickers. I thought of making this one and putting it on my car..

I wouldn’t put a bumper sticker on my car if you paid me. I think they are tacky and ruin the car. I can’t believe some people put stickers on the bumper of their new car. Never would I do such a thing. Our cars are 2-years and one-year old and there is no way. My last car was a 97 and STILL refused to put anything like that on my car (gave up the car in 2011). Even if Palin or Ronald Reagan were running, I would not put a sticker on my car. So tacky!!!!

Looking at the glass half-full, for all the A-As we have here in Hamp-Roads, the pro-BO stickers are pretty scarce as well as Kaine which I haven’t seen one on a car. Just a guess but I don’t think the A-As will be voting too fast for The One this time....pro-gay marriage, etc.
And I echo the “ he’s not the official nom with a veep pick” opinion.

Here in suburban Richmond I have only seen one Romney sticker (probably the same guy you saw). The closer you get to the city, especially the Fan district, the more Obama stuff you see. I have a magnetic Gadsden flag for my car but figure the open-minded love and granola types with their disdain for private property (except theirs) are likely to key any car that expresses a contrary opinion.

I have the same concerns when it comes to Bumper Stickers. I found a way to get around it though. You can purchase magnets the same size as bumper stickers. When you park your car they are easily removed and then replaced when you leave.

Same here.
Living in the Bay Area I would never put a bumper
sticker on the car.I know the car would be vandalized.
My daughter lives 50 miles north of me and was parked in a large parking lot.While walking back to her truck, she saw a couple in their 50-60’s ,walk up to her truck and spit on it.
Yeah,she had a Bush-Cheney sticker on the truck.
